Exodus 8
1 And the Lord said to Moses, Go in to Pharao, and you shall say to him, These things says the Lord: send forth my people, that they may serve me.
耶和华吩咐摩西说：“你进去见法老，对他说：‘耶和华这样说：容我的百姓去，好事奉我。
2 And if you will not send them forth, behold, I afflict all your borders with frogs:
你若不肯容他们去，我必使青蛙糟蹋你的四境。
3 and the river shall teem with frogs, and they shall go up and enter into your houses, and into your bed-chambers, and upon your beds, and upon the houses of your servants, and of your people and on your dough, and on your ovens.
河里要滋生青蛙；这青蛙要上来进你的宫殿和你的卧房，上你的床榻，进你臣仆的房屋，上你百姓的身上，进你的炉灶和你的抟面盆，
4 And upon you, and upon your servants, and upon your people, shall the frogs come up.
又要上你和你百姓并你众臣仆的身上。’”
5 And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron your brother, Stretch forth with the hand your rod over the rivers, and over the canals, and over the pools, and bring up the frogs.
耶和华晓谕摩西说：“你对亚伦说：‘把你的杖伸在江、河、池以上，使青蛙到埃及地上来。’”
6 And Aaron stretched forth his hand over the waters of Egypt, and brought up the frogs: and the frog was brought up, and covered the land of Egypt.
亚伦便伸杖在埃及的诸水以上，青蛙就上来，遮满了埃及地。
7 And the charmers of the Egyptians also did likewise with their sorceries, and brought up the frogs on the land of Egypt.
行法术的也用他们的邪术照样而行，叫青蛙上了埃及地。
8 And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, and said, Pray for me to the Lord, and let him take away the frogs from me and from my people; and I will send them away, and they shall sacrifice to the Lord.
法老召了摩西、亚伦来，说：“请你们求耶和华使这青蛙离开我和我的民，我就容百姓去祭祀耶和华。”
9 And Moses said to Pharao, Appoint me [a time] when I shall pray for you, and for your servants, and for your people, to cause the frogs to disappear from you, and from your people, and from your houses, only in the river shall they be left behind.
摩西对法老说：“任凭你吧，我要何时为你和你的臣仆并你的百姓祈求，除灭青蛙离开你和你的宫殿只留在河里呢？”
10 And he said, On the morrow: he said therefore, As you has said; that you may know, that there is no other [God] but the Lord.
他说：“明天。”摩西说：“可以照你的话吧，好叫你知道没有像耶和华—我们 神的。
11 And the frogs shall be removed away from you, and from your houses and from the villages, and from your servants, and from your people, only in the river they shall be left.
青蛙要离开你和你的宫殿，并你的臣仆与你的百姓，只留在河里。”
12 And Moses and Aaron went forth from Pharao, and Moses cried to the Lord concerning the restriction of the frogs, as Pharao appointed him.
于是摩西、亚伦离开法老出去。摩西为扰害法老的青蛙呼求耶和华。
13 And the Lord did as Moses said, and the frogs died out of the houses, and out of the villages, and out of the fields.
耶和华就照摩西的话行。凡在房里、院中、田间的青蛙都死了。
14 And they gathered them together in heaps, and the land stank.
众人把青蛙聚拢成堆，遍地就都腥臭。
15 And when Pharao saw that there was relief, his heart was hardened, and he did not listen to them, as the Lord spoke.
但法老见灾祸松缓，就硬着心，不肯听他们，正如耶和华所说的。
16 And the Lord said to Moses, Say to Aaron, Stretch forth your rod with your hand and strike the dust of the earth; and there shall be lice both upon man, and upon quadrupeds, and in all the land of Egypt.
耶和华吩咐摩西说：“你对亚伦说：‘伸出你的杖击打地上的尘土，使尘土在埃及遍地变作虱子。’”
17 So Aaron stretched out his rod with his hand, and struck the dust of the earth; and the lice were on men and on quadrupeds, and in all the dust of the earth there were lice.
他们就这样行。亚伦伸杖击打地上的尘土，就在人身上和牲畜身上有了虱子；埃及遍地的尘土都变成虱子了。
18 And the charmers also did so with their sorceries, to bring forth the louse, and they could not. And the lice were both on the men and on the quadrupeds.
行法术的也用邪术要生出虱子来，却是不能。于是在人身上和牲畜身上都有了虱子。
19 So the charmers said to Pharao, This is the finger of God. But the heart of Pharao was hardened, and he listened not to them, as the Lord said.
行法术的就对法老说：“这是 神的手段。”法老心里刚硬，不肯听摩西、亚伦，正如耶和华所说的。
20 And the Lord said to Moses, Rise up early in the morning, and stand before Pharao: and behold, he will go forth to the water, and you shall say to him, These things says the Lord: Send away my people, that they may serve me in the wilderness.
耶和华对摩西说：“你清早起来，法老来到水边，你站在他面前，对他说：‘耶和华这样说：容我的百姓去，好事奉我。
21 And if you will not let my people go, behold, I send upon you, and upon your servants, and upon your people, and upon your houses, the dog-fly; and the houses of the Egyptians shall be filled with the dog-fly, even throughout the land upon which they are.
你若不容我的百姓去，我要叫成群的苍蝇到你和你臣仆并你百姓的身上，进你的房屋，并且埃及人的房屋和他们所住的地都要满了成群的苍蝇。
22 and I will distinguish marvellously in that day the land of Gesem, on which my people dwell, in which the dog-fly shall not be: that you may know that I am the Lord the God of all the earth.
当那日，我必分别我百姓所住的歌珊地，使那里没有成群的苍蝇，好叫你知道我是天下的耶和华。
23 And I will put a difference between my people and your people, and on the morrow shall this be on the land. And the Lord did thus.
我要将我的百姓和你的百姓分别出来。明天必有这神迹。’”
24 And the dog-fly came in abundance into the houses of Pharao, and into the houses of his servants, and into all the land of Egypt; and the land was destroyed by the dog-fly.
耶和华就这样行。苍蝇成了大群，进入法老的宫殿，和他臣仆的房屋；埃及遍地就因这成群的苍蝇败坏了。
25 And Pharao called Moses and Aaron, saying, Go and sacrifice to the Lord your God in the land.
法老召了摩西、亚伦来，说：“你们去，在这地祭祀你们的 神吧！”
26 And Moses said, It can’t be so, for we shall sacrifice to the Lord our God the abominations of the Egyptians; for if we sacrifice the abominations of the Egyptians before them, we shall be stoned.
摩西说：“这样行本不相宜，因为我们要把埃及人所厌恶的祭祀耶和华—我们的 神；若把埃及人所厌恶的在他们眼前献为祭，他们岂不拿石头打死我们吗？
27 We will go a journey of three days into the wilderness, and we will sacrifice to the Lord our God, as the Lord said to us.
我们要往旷野去，走三天的路程，照着耶和华—我们 神所要吩咐我们的祭祀他。”
28 And Pharao said, I [will] let you go, and do you sacrifice to your God in the wilderness, but do not go very far away: pray then for me to the Lord.
法老说：“我容你们去，在旷野祭祀耶和华—你们的 神；只是不要走得很远。求你们为我祈祷。”
29 And Moses said, I then will go forth from you and pray to God, and the dog-fly shall depart both from your servants, and from your people to-morrow. Do not you, Pharao, deceive again, so as not to send the people away to do sacrifice to the Lord.
摩西说：“我要出去求耶和华，使成群的苍蝇明天离开法老和法老的臣仆并法老的百姓；法老却不可再行诡诈，不容百姓去祭祀耶和华。”
30 And Moses went out from Pharao, and prayed to God.
于是摩西离开法老去求耶和华。
31 And the Lord did as Moses said, and removed the dog-fly from Pharao, and from his servants, and from his people, and there was not one left.
耶和华就照摩西的话行，叫成群的苍蝇离开法老和他的臣仆并他的百姓，一个也没有留下。
32 And Pharao hardened his heart, even on this occasion, and he would not send the people away.
这一次法老又硬着心，不容百姓去。
